I've been trying to switch a bunch of my clothes to natural fibers rather than plastic, and these are the best looking and feeling shirts I've found.

Sonos Play:5 knockoff. I don't think it sounds as good, but it looks way cooler and a step up over the Sonos Move. Probably best as a surround speaker.

Bought the wrong type of Brooks once and returned them more than two months later. Crazy! I'm a customer for life because of that.

Hoka Bondi

Grok said these were the best if you’re struggling with plantar fasciitis and my oh my I haven’t had pain since switching to these shoes for running/walking

Replaced one of my favorite speakers of all time. We got it in green because why not. Kitchen to deck to anywhere I want. Perfect.

Gritin Recharging Book Light

has different settings for colors and brightness, my boys love to play with it too

No strong feelings on this grill. Natural gas line means no propane hassle. Wish it were bigger, but it gets the job done.

Better tasting than LMNT with better ingredients.

LG Blu-ray Drive

I'm working on a home media server and ripping some of my favorite TV shows. It's been a lot of fun!

Been wearing these for almost 10 years. Great to workout in, look good enough to go out in. They swish when you walk and my wife hates it.

Equip Protein Powder

definitely my favorite protein powder! (these 2 flavors specifically)

Supposedly one of the first filters that handles microplastics. Hasn't been fully tested yet. Honestly, I bought it because it looks incredible.

Not a huge upgrade over the Pod 4, but still one of my favorite items in my home. Keeps my side cool and my wife's hot. That's all we need.

Mac mini M4

I’m down vibe coding rabbit hole and trying to self host a bunch of apps now. 24 GB of RAM. Let’s see where this takes me.

Enaskin Naturals Eye Masks

my husband doesn’t think these do anything but i swear they help the dark circles under my eyes. kind of more like a morning ritual at this point.

Brings me back to my early Playbar days. Sometimes I can't believe it's one speaker. You'll hear sounds from behind you when it's right in front.

I think I would still prefer the mouse, but this was an interesting experiment.

I hated the Apple Magic Trackpad, but this made me not hate it, and it's only a few bucks.

Loved my AirPods 3, and these are just a little smaller with better battery life. Still one of my favorite Apple products of all time.

Nest Thermostat (Gen 4)

I've owned this for more than a year. I hate the learning features. And for a premium product, it looks cheap compared to the past generation.

I’ve used these three times a week for almost five years. Way cheaper than a full set. Not perfect, but I haven't found anything better. Looking to upgrade.

I’ve been using this for five years. It gets the job done but damages every door frame/trim it’s ever been on. Looking for a wall unit.

I hardly ever use these, but when I do the battery is dead.

Bodylastics Resistance Band

I don't use these a ton, but in a pinch they get the job done and haven't snapped on me.

I've been sleeping on one for over ten years. They're under $500 and great value for the comfort offered.

Ecobee Thermostat Premium

I've always preferred Ecobee over Nest, but I'm testing them side by side again. Love that Ecobee finally made something that looks nice.

After using my parents' bike for years, I got my own. Still the best way to get my head right. My wife and I have combined for over 1,500 rides on it.

Tested over 15 brands on camsunderpants.com (not kidding). Tommy John won almost ten years ago and I'm still wearing them. Soft and they don't ride up.

Taft Coffee

Taft is the world’s highest-caffeine coffee. It’s the only coffee where I actually feel the caffeine waking me up.

I was one of Bottomless's first customers. Put your coffee on their scale and a new bag is sent when you start to run low. Brilliant.

Pure Encapsulations Magnesium

love to take my night time magnesium - also super helpful for period cramps!

Got this as a gift and it was my intro to Yeti build quality. Daily water drinker for six years and it's still in incredible condition.

We have two in our kids' bedrooms as nanny cams. Never touch the Aqara app. We only use it for HomeKit Secure Video.

Aqara Doorbell G400

This is the first reasonably priced smart doorbell that has Apple HomeKit Secure. I've tried two other Aqara products and like them, so we'll see how it goes.

Ice Cream For Bears

Six ingredient ice cream made with real honey. Crazy expensive, but amazing taste. Queen & Bean, Salted Caramaul and Dough Bear are my go-tos.

I haven't gotten sick since I started taking these. Thorne is well known for selling clean supplements and all third-party tested.

It does exactly what it's supposed to do. It's nice and sturdy, and I can adjust the height.

Not quite as good as the Schlage Encode Plus, but it's looks better. Point my Apple Watch at it and it opens. Works for my wife's watch too. Zero friction.

Battery-powered and it handles my whole yard on one charge. Sounds like a loud vacuum, not a motor. Great for listening to podcasts while mowing.

$1,000 and my wife and I both kind of hate it. Hard to get the temps right because the blanket has to match the pod cover. Too cold or too hot.

We kept burning through non-stick pans. Ceramic, whatever, they don't last. This carbon steel is naturally non-stick and you just re-season when it's not.

Moved on from Hue years ago but came crawling back. Recessed LED Hue lights in the ceiling during our renovation. They look incredible and stay connected.

I've tried mats from the big box stores, and these are way higher quality for the same price.

SUNPOW Resistance Bands

My wife uses these for assisted pull ups. And I've got a couple back exercise workouts that I like to do with these.

This is the mic I use for shooting my YouTube videos. It plugs directly into my iPhone.

Kiwi Kspg 4812 Coffee Grinder

Got it without high expectations. It has been doing a great job for last 2 years, the blades are still sharp. The only downside is, no adjustable grind size

I never have to flip my pillow anymore. Cold water gets pumped through this thing the entire night and my head is no longer hot.

I like these because they work with Matter, so you only need to use the Apple Home app. Setup takes two seconds.

I've owned every Dyson for years, but this one was a game changer. So much lighter than anything before it. Same power, half the weight.

Solid pillow. Stays cooler than average but the coolness doesn't last forever. Probably not for everyone at almost $200.

Aare Smart Button

I have two of these. Perfect way to control dumb tech without a phone. I use mine to turn on my YouTube lights and for turning on a light strip.

The M chips are so good that few people need a Pro anymore. Got 32GB of RAM to try local LLMs on it, which is crazy for this size. All-day battery.

Still wearing this three years later and that says everything. Thought it'd be too big. It's perfect. Killed my need to upgrade every year.

Seagate Expansion 8TB HDD

Didn't think I'd ever buy a spinning disk drive again, especially in 2026. But I got this for $250 to start working on my media server.

I was looking for a wheelbarrow and found this. It gets the job done, it's pretty sturdy, and it won't tip over.

I still love grinding my own beans, but the convenience here is ridiculous. Tastes as good as a coffee shop for $2 a pod. Hot or cold whenever you want.

Apple TV's interface still feels like a giant iPad, and it's still ad-free. Cleanest streaming setup you can get.

I take one tablet at lunch and two before bed. These are the cleanest I could find, and they definitely improve my sleep and help with recovery.

Fits right on top of my coffee mugs. Single cup pour over with 23 grams of beans. Basically a less fragile Chemex.

Perfect ingredients. 20g of protein from beef isolate, sweetened with honey and dates. Peanut butter and chocolate are incredible. The berry one tastes nasty.

Birthday present that works surprisingly well. About a minute of cranking and the beans are ready. Nearly silent, which is huge with sleeping kids.

I've tested a lot of mesh systems and keep coming back to Eero. WiFi 6, great value, and it just works. This is the one I always recommend.

I've been taking one pill every other day for a few months. It's helped my physical and mental performance.

Slow cooking without the sketchy stuff in crockpots. Some micro-fractures, probably our fault. Should've gone Le Creuset but weren't ready for the big leagues.

I owned a standing desk ten years ago that wobbled like crazy. This one is a beast! I just wish it was real wood finish rather than laminate.

This was Wirecutter's top pick for years. It works well. Crazy to see the color change when you're searing a steak or cleaning with Clorox wipes.

Been drinking coffee out of these for years. They look cool and keep it warm or cold. With two toddlers, the lid went from nice-to-have to necessity.

Delonghi ECP 35.31 Espresso Machine

I've been using this espresso machine for almost two years. The espresso it delivers is consistent, hot and creamy. I have no regrets buying this machine.

Lovesac PillowSac Chair

Super comfy and love the blue color, but it's annoying that you have to re-fluff it every few uses.

TVs are a commodity now. I just wanted something good for sports and movies, and this delivers. Has Google TV but we use our Apple TV instead.

I hated the feel of the wallets with the FineWoven materials, back to the leather, which is awesome! Apple discontinued them so check eBay.

Before these, I was going outside constantly to start and stop sprinklers. Now I don't think about them at all. Just don't leave them out when it freezes.

I'm paying for the sub because I have Google Gemini. It catches every package arrival and recognizes familiar faces well.

Toothpaste in tablet form just makes too much sense. How did nobody think of this before? Perfect for traveling. And no fluoride, but similar strength benefits.

This makes standing a little more bearable.

No aluminum & clean ingredients, which is great. But I still haven't found a natural deodorant that works the full day. And this one clumps up as you close it.

Perfect treat after we put the boys down. Grape, Root Beer, Apple, and Dr. Goodwin are my faves. Only buy from Olipop directly, not Amazon (different recipes).

EGO Power+ Leaf Blower

Didn't envision myself needing a leaf blower this early in life. Uses the same batteries as my mower, which is convenient. Works well.

My skin breaks out from whey protein. This is a dairy-free beef isolate and clean. I love the coconut sugar options in vanilla and chocolate.

I love just swinging this thing out of the way when I'm done shooting. It's so much nicer than having a stand.

Micro Mini Deluxe Scooter

Got it for my kid when he was 3, and he is still using it with no issues, he is now 7 but we will need a bigger one as this is too small for his age.

Don't love using this inside because it makes a huge mess. But throw it on top of a gas grill for smash burgers and it's perfect.

My way to get HomeKit brains to my Wreck Room. Sounds amazing for podcasts, decent for music. A solid step up from the iPhone speaker.

Lovesac Sactional

We made a U shape which fits our living room perfectly, but we can align it differently later on. Took way longer to assemble than I thought it would.

I use this for measuring beans and a bunch of other stuff in the kitchen. It goes to a tenth of a gram and can measure up to like 8 lb.

Fitness Gear Adjustable Bench

I bought a cheap bench on Amazon that fell like it was going to fall apart. This was the same price as Dick's. Still holding up 5+ years later.

I wanted something electric, not plastic, that could do our baby's formula at low temps and boil. This does it all.

My favorite iPhone of all time. The smaller battery and single camera are non-issues for me. I've dropped it over 100 times without a case. Indestructible.

A lot of people hate on this, but when I'm working at my desk, I want it to feel like my MacBook, and that's what this does.

Almost left this off my Sterp because it's just a TV mount. But the build quality, instructions, and swivel are all excellent.

I don't work at my standing desk a ton, but when I do, I'm always on this display. Looks great. Wish the webcam were better.
